Irrigation with antibiotic-containing solutions
Irrigation with antibiotic-containing solutions is used #prophylactically to prevent operative #wound #infections. MD's #irrigation preference for a circumferential body lift: 1 liter normal saline with 100,000 units #Bacitracin, 2 grams #Ancef, and 160mg #Gentamicin (3 batches pictured).
